Re: tangoGPS, a new gps mapping software for the Neo
Thanks for the quick reply :-) So, if a I follow you, tango GPS and Maemo Mapper have the same exact goal (in terms of features). They only differ by their adaptation to their respective hardware ? I'm thinking about building a localisation-based feature both on OpenMoko and Maemo but with an high priority on Maemo. I have the following options : - Develop with Maemo Mapper then, later, port Maemo Mapper to OpenMoko - Develop with Maemo Mapper then, later, port my feature to TangoGPS - Port TangoGPS to Maemo then develop my feature in Tango GPS - Any other Open Source GPS application in the field ? However, I'm pleased to hear that porting is quite straightforward. I have no idea about compatibility between OpenMoko and Maemo apps. Thanks for the good job !

Good work though Auto-center could be a checkbox or toggle-button. Sometimes you want to explore the map; other times you want to see where you are continuously, without having to interact with it at all. If you drag the map too far, it should automatically toggle into the off state, so you can explore the map without interference; then you just have to toggle it back on again to jump instantly back to the current position. I also notice a smearing effect that is probably caused by rapidly repainting the same tile during dragging (the tile gets painted into its new position, but the previous position was not erased, nor covered up by another tile, so you see the edges of it, still there). It is distracting and takes a second to be repainted correctly again after the dragging stops. But I'm impressed that the dragging itself is otherwise so smooth. ___ OpenMoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
